1 teaspoon of smoked paprika, the Picanté version ( I use Pimentón de la Vera )

soy baking margarine

** To serve:

fresh crusty baguette or gluten-free baguette, in pieces

6 sprigs of fresh chives, washed, pad dry on kitchen paper

butter or minarine to put on the baguette pieces

Method:

1. Take a large cooking pot & melt some baking margarine in it. Heat up on medium high. When sizzling hot, add the chopped up onions & garlic. Stir often. Fry until soft.

2. Add the chunks of sweet potatoes. Stir. Add the spices, stir everything around & let the spices fry for about 1 minute. So, that the aromas come free. Now, add the stock & stir. Now put the lid on & cook until the sweet potatoes are cooked trough. I use the steaming pot with fitting lid for this. It is much easier & much quicker.

3. When the potatoes are cooked trough, check the seasoning. Taste. It has to taste fab!

4. Puree the soup. Taste again. Now, add the 250 ml of the coconut milk. Stir until evenly divided. Taste again! Now the soup tastes fab & it needs the coconut milk otherwise it is to spicy & hot!

5. Laddle the soup into the soup bowls & cut the chives with a scissor into equal little pieces on the surface of the soup. Serve with some crusty baguette & some butter or minarine.

Completely adore sweet potatoes myself, although have never paired them with coconut milk .. can't wait to give this exotic combo a shot as the weather cools down here! Thks Sophie .. and lovely to have u back from holidays .. when can we see pics??

Glad you had a great vacay!! Nice to see you back :)I also adore sweet potatoes, in any way, shape or form, but I've never tried with coconut and all of those lovely spices. That soup looks fabulous and so creamy. Another future 'must try' for me..plus, it's good for you, BONUS!

Sophie, you are already back? I hope you had some great vacations.I love sweet potatoes, fried as chips or as a puree, but definitely you hit the spot because my favorite is in a soup.Also loved that your soup calls for cinnamon and pimenton, I think this spices add so much character to your soup. I think soups are the ultimate comfort food, just the kind of food you crave for, after a holiday or vacation isn't it?

Welcome back, Sophie! Hope you had a great time! This soup looks so delicious! I absolutely love sweet potatoes and the flavors in the soup sound incredible. I can almost taste it! What a thing to come home to!

Very curious flavours on that soup, I am not sure if I'd like it, but looks delicious so I would definitely try it…(was not a criticism just personal taste remark), who knows I may like it…thanks for sharing kisses xxx
